------------------------------------------------
Patch looks good to me. ya I think the shorter version is the easiest way after
seeing the code where the patch is prepared.
Regarding the point where you say a Region Server dies and you end up seeing
lot of uncollected files, in the version without HBASE-13082 - suppose a set of
compactions started but that RS got killed or dies before it is completed you
wil have all those store files again getting used for subsequent readers when
the regions are opened in a new RS and there should be another compaction that
needs to run and move the files to the archive dir. Now even after HBASE-13082
- the scenario is similar because once the compaction is done if the Compaction
discharger thread does not kick in and before that your RS dies, you end up
with the store files again available for reads and you need one more set of
compaction to happen in the new RS to move the files to the archive dir.
After applying the patch also you still get issues where the compacted files
are not cleared? You mean there is always a set of files that is not cleared ?
Now coming to do the cleaning operation during close(), I think we are doing it
on HStore.close() operation and ensuring that the compacted files are moved to
the archive dir. Its good to check this out before we commit the updated patch
to branch-1.

> We observed this production that after a region server dies there are huge
> number of hfiles in that region for the region server running the version
> with HBASE-13082, In the doc it is given that it is expected to happen, but
> we found a one place where scanners are not being closed. If the scanners are
> not closed their references are not decremented and that is leading to the
> issue of huge number of store files not being finalized
> All I was able to find is in the selectScannersFrom, where we discard some of
> the scanners and we are not closing them. I am attaching a patch for that.
> Also to avoid these issues should the files that are done be logged and
> finalized (moved to archive) as a part of region close operation. This will
> solve any leaks that can happen and does not cause any dire consequences?
